zack_280 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Is the preferred app for phone streaming still Larix? It would be nice to broadcast in HD, but 5 cars broadcasting in HD may cause everyone to have a choppy stream. Any recommendations on resolution settings? I'm thinking I'll just try to go with 640x480. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skierman64 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Bill, I'm driving with Junk in the Trunk racing at Autobahn. If you send me the equipment I'll install it in the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bill Strong Posted May 31, 2017 Author Administrators Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 720 is the max you need to go. if not then 640 is good. Autobahn is not a ChumpCast Live! event, so sorry, I can't do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Bill Strong Posted May 31, 2017 Author Administrators Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 oops. yes, Larix Broadcaster is the preferred app. I used 39GB on my pit phone/camera this weekend. but that was a lot of other stuff I was doing too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zack_280 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Thanks Bill. I've got 10-12GB of data to play with. Hopefully that'll at least get us through day 1. Guess I'll look into other plan options, but I doubt I change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bill Strong Posted May 31, 2017 Author Administrators Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 It will get you through the weekend at 720 with no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow I used 20-22GB streaming Fri-Sat about 13-14 hrs total? Is this typical data usage? (It's the first time I got it work) Maybe I got hit twice for running both the cerevo website and racecast.me on my laptop? The video feed looked good though, just often choppy, but very clear.

Administrators Bill Strong Posted June 1, 2017 Author Administrators Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 I seemed to have used a lot as well. I accidentally left my hotspot on, so I think all my devices were hooking up to my pit cam phone. Normally a double-7 I would use about 8-11GB depending on what I was doing. The Verizon MiFi with the cerevo and gopro in-car would use about 8-10GB in the car at 720p. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are thinking the Airports have a lot to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
